I'm personally just bored of the site. Ever since it was revealed to be less of a breed-and-trade game and more of a breed-and-exalt-or-you-have-no-money slog I've just gotten less and less interested. Even worse since you get the best deal from exalting by levelling first and the coli is a boring piece of crap for those who can actually access it. NotN is my most active time cos I'm actively working towards helping people, which I enjoy doing. After that I don't touch the coli with a 10ft pole. They can add new loot and familiars and venues as much as they like, it's not gonna get me in there in the state it's in.

Aside from trying - and constantly failing - to breed certain colour combos for Dewclaw and Ashaine, I personally have no goals or collections or anything like that.I have nothing to work towards even when I have a decent stack of treasure. Heck I don't have a dream dragon - the closest to that was Junius who I'm so lucky and grateful to you guys for having. Any projects I've had are either complete or abandoned and my current ones are about to join the latter due to loss of interest in it. The only pair I have that I'm still excited to see hatchlings from is my blackbird pair. And they're not gonna be interesting soon either.

Basically I log in, I feed my lair, I hatch nests, I breed anyone off CD, I spend my gathering turns on non-existent skinks then log off again. If my lair gets full I straight-up exalt unlevelled dragons for a quick buck. It's just... not fun any more. I love our little community and I enjoy seeing what people come to show off. But I've lost desire to show off what I have unless I'm super proud of them.

Check out PetEmote here! | Visit my Flight Rising lair!

Rest in peace mum. I really did love and miss you, even if I never got to see you.

Urg, I wish I had more interest in this site to make some treasure. I have a few unfinished projects and some dragons I want to re gene...

On another note, I'm scared about asking for either a 1x1 or group RP on Discord or the site. I'm not sure if it's allowed to ask for offsite RPs or non-FR related ones. >.>;

NEW SIGNATURE PENDING... SOON.

There's plenty of non-FR rps on the boards, so you're fine in that department :P and I don't see why you wouldn't be able to ask for off-site rp, I'm sure there's been a lot of people who have before

Very tiny rant. I just don't understand why renaming scrolls don't restock EVERY time the marketplace does. There is no reason they shouldn't. I waited over an hour checking every 5 minutes to get the 3 scrolls I needed. :evil:

I agree. Some things should just be unlimited/permanent.

I immediately thought of you when I saw the black & red lace items Tarn! Why is all the gorgeous red stuff a Swipp item though.

Someone is finally selling an XYX dragon I've been interested in since I started collecting G1s. Then someone offers up a freaking bone fiend for it. I just can't compete with that. :(

I know the dragon Ashaine is talking about. I don't feel he was worth a bonefiend. :| I'll hush about it though.

Syleye - He was an obsidian /crimson /crimson noc. Gen one.

Tarn - And that 6 digit girl. Know her too. I'm still watching her. Lol But. Doubt I'll afford her.

why is it whenever I find a dragon I like that's up for trade and I offer basically exactly what the person is looking for it's never good enough...so frustrated. found a beautiful baby today, but now all of a sudden they want an auction. I can't handle keeping track of that with all the damned meds and sleeping

AHHHHHHHH! OMG! I know who it was who bought that obs/crim/crim G1. LOL! A good friend, so I can't be too mad. Even if I have major G1 envy. :lol: I just wish I would have known about this game when it first released. At least in time to have collected some of the things that are most valuable. I'm so scared that if and when the G1 version of my progen is hatched I'll be completely and totally screwed if it goes to auction. :'( That really is my worst fear.

Syleye: I've had that happen to me as well a time or two. It's frustrating as heck. *hugs* I hope you'll manage to get the dragon!
